Or in this case, a nice Banh Mi…
geddit?
Lightweight but you need a damn big power bank to keep this going I'm sure.
Pointless really when your own body acts like a massive heater. Just buy a normal sleeping bag for the conditions required.
Agree. In a confined space, body heat will keep you warm. And wear appropriate warm clothes to trap body heat (eg thermals).
Was in tiny 1 person tent at Cockle Creek on South Coast of Tasmania in very cold windy conditions. Sheltered tent was quite warm from body heat, toasty warm in sleeping bag.
Same when rescuing a person on Tassie mountain trail, as blizzard headed in. I suspected hypothermia. Sent message with another hiker to Rangers.
Got them into confined space in sleeping bag. Was kept warm until helicopter evacuation to hospital.
It is survival basics. Unlikely they would have survived otherwise.Those examples from my experience in cold conditions, show the effectiveness of heat from our own body to keep us warm.
its to get you to warmer body temp quicker.
Don't think you understand the basics of keeping warm!
Always better not to lose heat in the first place - by wearing appropriate warm clothes.
Then use a good sleeping bag to keep the heat in.Rather than rely on a gimmick like this to warm you back up!!
When the power fails (flat powerbank, faulty or disconnected cable, faulty unit) you're going to get cold very quickly❄
May last a night, but unless you can recharge (requiring taking more gear) - it's just useless after that!
Camping can be tough on equipment.
Never a good idea being remote carrying tech that doesn't work!(There are other solutions to use at home. Which is where many would use this.)
Even in a review of a different heated sleeping bag, it recommended still wearing really warm socks.
Something I swear by in a sleeping bag, along with wearing good thermals.And "It’s important to note that they don’t actually get that hot! A hot water bottle, for example, radiates a lot more heat."
"The bag is quite bulky, so it doesn’t pack down as much as my other sleeping bags, so it is only really suitable for campsites and car camping"
Importantly, use a good insulating mat to stop heat escaping into ground from sleeping bag!
I've warmly slept on ice for many nights @2500+m in Japanese Alps. Without this gimmick😉
I'm well aware thanks. This is just a "luxury" item which gets your body temp warmer quicker, that is all. It's similar to a heated jacket
@Feeblely: Far "quicker" & more effective - not to lose heat from your body in first place.
gets your body temp warmer
If your body temperature has fallen - that's potentially a serious health matter - hypothermia.
Like the person I arranged a helicopter medevac to hospital!Think you are talking about the much lesser inconvenience of just feeling cold!
Our bodies are adapted to dealing with the cold. Research suggests it may be good for our health!
People have different experiences with cold - some are more sensitive. (I used to wear thongs on my feet in the snow.)Easily solved by wearing appropriate warm clothes. (Like many Mother's tell their children😉)
I've been caught in blizzard conditions, in a remote location (no mobile reception, many hours walk to nearest remote road). Left for long hike from campsite with clothes appropriate for conditions.
Very glad took extra set of thermals & warm socks (in waterproof dry sack) that kept me toasty warm. Sheltered from extreme conditions. Kept in a tight ball to conserve heat.
Came back to camp 6 hours later to find a search party being organised - for me!This device would have been useless there on 12 day hike in mountains. Where powerbank would quickly deplete & the extra weight would have been a great imposition!
*Might be nice for kids on overnight camping in back yard.
As you say - just a "luxury"…
More an unnecessary gimmick.@INFIDEL: I had a friend who bought a sleeping bag. He wanted something light and compact for the occasional overnight use in mild conditions. He loved comfort, so wanted to be able to preheat the sleeping bag and adjust the temperature to the perfect temp for sleeping in boxers. Warm enough to soften his breakfast chocolate, he said, but not make it actually melt.
So he went online and bought a sleeping bag. But the first time he used it, he discovered it was useless! It was designed for blizzard conditions, so was heavier than he wanted, and couldn't pack down small. And it had no heater, so couldn't be prewarmed, and he would always wake up during the night clammy and covered in melted chocolate because it had too much insulation and trapped in the heat.
He complained about how bad it was, and how all the features were pointless gimmicks and didn't do any of the things he needed!
I never did figure out why he blamed the sleeping bag for being bad, when the problem was he bought one that wasn't suitable for how he wanted to use it.
complained about how bad it was, and how all the features were pointless gimmicks and didn't do any of the things he needed!
Yes, first consider what you need & get good advice.
But even then, our own experience (after purchase) is often only way to know what suits us.
[As an experiment, long ago made my own FREE sleeping bag from newspaper! (Pages sown together as large pockets & stuffed with crumpled pages) *As Recommended by rough sleepers😉
Placed on a thick foam mat it was comfortable & warm. But was told it sounded like I was sleeping in a bag of crisps🤣 Recycled it.]Bought a tiny lightweight down bag decades ago. Prototype designed by mountaineer who set up Mountain Designs. Overkill for my needs! I lacked any real hiking & camping experience.
Great in extreme cold. Still in occasional use.Temperature adjustment is usually limited - only by opening or closing zips & tightening / loosening bag.
Bag can be made warmer by what you wear… Thermals, gloves & even a balaclava have got me through nights as the snow fell in Japanese mountains, even in my warmest down bag. They're very light for amount of added warmth.
So choosing bag for climate is important. Just like choice of travel clothes.
Now have 4 other bags, designed for different conditions.
(3 picked up free on travels. People discard good but bulky gear at end of travel!)And a few insulating mats to control heat loss to ground & a comfy sleep. Exped mat is thickest - pumps to inflate & contains down, so can sleep on ice.
As am a light traveller (small pack, carry on only), select clothes & equipment depending on destination & season.
Carrying my own light sleep gear, gives me maximum flexibility & minimal inconvenience on my world travels.
Slept on beaches in Japan.
Arrived in Busan, South Korea - to find it booked out for Film Festival. Called guy I knew there & slept on apartment balcony.
Still - not a good idea to sleep with chocolate. Might be an embarrassing experience washing that off at a campsite😄
I've had to sleep with my water bottle in sleeping bag - in Summer in Tasmania! Otherwise it would freeze❄
I get your point, I don't get you downvoting the deal.
It is a deal if somebody's after this product, bc they want a sleeping bag heated like this, and you don't get to say their reasons why they shouldn't.
You can neg all the dishwasher deals because, hey, arbitrarily people buying dishwashers probably don't understand how dishwashing works! It's actually faster, cheaper and more effective if you do it correctly by hand. Source? Your local restaurant.
So, did you find a heated sleeping bag cheaper elsewhere or is it just "I don't like it, I neg it" situation?
Second this. Pet lizards need external heat source.
And what about Lizard Spocks?
Not pointless. If you take your pet lizard with you and you don't want the lizard to sleep with you inside your own bag, this lizard sleeping back is great.
Quite an elaborate joke.
This is the normal sleeping bag for the conditions required - luxury use with toasty warm preheating, and adjustable temperature.
It's the same reason people use electric blankets, hot water bottles etc.
I wouldn't argue the point at only $45 (down from $89)
Obviously you havent slept in a sleeping bag on a freezing cold night.
Thanks op. Got one delivered for $45 👍
Ok so my mind is corrupt because I thought it was a flesh light in the thumbnail with a bit of complimentary lube on the side.
I have quite a dirty mind sometimes but did not see this. You should seek help :)
Alright but only because your username is also dirty to me.
If its really really cold, like a 3 dog night.
Then you need 3 kelpies.
Thats itConsider your use & alternatives
Tech often fails at the worst possible times - when you need it most (coldest night, long way from home, etc).
Seems some don't believe that!!Not a real issue if using this around home.
Had a sleeping mat fail while camping @2500m in Japan Alps. I always check my gear before use - worked great at home. But in icy location, it came apart. Useless for sleep.
Cost me a failed expensive week long trip @3000+m, that I was looking forward to.
Emailed store in Oz. They weren't surprised. "Just bring it in when you get back." Pretty bloody inconvenient & useless, but got a refund on return 2 months later. Never bought camping gear there again.Camera failed on a week long walk on coast track in NZ. Would have been a long walk out to nearest town, then many hours to a camera shop. Oh well, still have the memories.
Just last night, it was cold. Used microwave to make a hot chocolate.
But it didn't heat.
Luckily have a spare microwave! (Used to repair them, even have spare Magnetron tube & parts for failed one.)
Being at home it wasn't an issue - there were plenty of alternatives to make a drink. Just a minor nuisance.
Repairing or replacing an electruc sleeping bag is not possible when out camping a long way from home, on a cold night.
USB power for this may run out & fail, or the wiring / heating pads in the sleeping bag fail - leaving you very cold & unprepared❄
Instead, wearing appropriate warm clothing & in good sleeping bag - will keep you warm. Importantly, keeps you warm when you need to get out of your sleeping bag during the night…
People die or need rescuing each year here, when they trust too much in their tech for outdoor use. (I've done a rescue of a confident, but unprepared person.)
[Edit after instant neg] But seems some are such strong believers in this product, they can't think any other way! And neg any warning.
As I simply suggested,
Consider your use & alternatives.
Is this suitable for your use?not only that, lithium batteries can loose efficiency when cold
I had a warning on my phone yesterday when I got up and the min temp was apparently 4.1 but the previous night felt colder. Battery was at 7%, went to look for a battery bank and came back a few mins later and it was 4%
Already 4.1° - ouch!
As you say, batteries are affected by temperature. Capacity can suddenly drop or unexpectedly completely fail. That's not what you want when it gets cold when camping!
At least with clothes & sleeping bag - never had them suddenly fail, leaving me cold❄
Signs of wear in materials are easily seen & fixed.
Thermals designed for hiking are my favourite clothing to include when camping & on long travels.
Can layer a few pair to sleep in, requiring a cheaper sleeping bag designed for warmer weather.Dependable, small, light, cheap when on sale, good to layer to regulate warmth🌡
And versatile. Fit without being noticed under normal clothes. (Take a spare pair with me when I go out in colder places, to get into if temp drops.)
Comfy to sleep in (wear my old ones at home). Kept me toasty warm in freezing temperatures🔥Getting clothes wet is about the worst that can happen. Which is reassuring. Just keep them dry (I carry warm clothes & tiny down sleeping bag in dry sacks).
But suspect most buying these, won't be using this far from a nice warm bed or a vehicle😉
